Background: Single-position prone transpsoas lateral lumbar interbody fusion (PTP-LLIF) is an evolving minimally invasive surgery technique that merges the biomechanical and anatomical advantages of prone positioning with the LLIF approach. While PTP-LLIF enhances lumbar lordosis restoration and operative efficiency by eliminating patient repositioning, it presents unique ergonomic and visualization challenges for surgeons. This technical report describes a novel modification of the technique using the Teligen camera to improve intraoperative visualization and reduce surgeon fatigue.

Computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) systems for color fundus images play a critical role in the early detection of fundus diseases, including diabetes, hypertension, and cerebrovascular disorders. Although deep learning has substantially advanced automatic segmentation techniques in this field, several challenges persist, such as limited labeled datasets, significant structural variations in blood vessels, and persistent dataset discrepancies, which continue to hinder progress. These challenges lead to inconsistent segmentation performance, particularly for small vessels and branch regions.

Background: Velocity-Based Training (VBT) is an emerging method in resistance training for objectively prescribing and monitoring training intensity and neuromuscular function. Given its growing popularity, assessing the validity and reliability of VBT devices is critical for strength and conditioning coaches.
Objective: The primary purpose of this review was twofold: (1) to identify and address methodological gaps in current assessments of VBT device validity and reliability, and (2) to propose and apply a novel, multi-layered, criterion-based framework-developed in collaboration with statisticians and domain experts-for evaluating these devices.

The present protocol evaluates the relative impact of visual and vestibular inputs during roll plane rotations using optokinetic, vestibular, and combined visuovestibular stimulations. Subjects underwent isolated visual rotations, whole-body vestibular rotations in darkness, and visuovestibular stimulations combining static visual scenes with head rotations. Dynamic and static eye movement gains, absolute amplitudes, velocities, and accelerations were measured alongside perceptual responses.

BackgroundAt present, nonvirtual neurovascular training can be performed using either an angiographic suite under fluoroscopic guidance (entailing radiation exposure) or direct optical visualization with a camera-based system. The angiographic approach offers high-fidelity visualization and catheter control but is constrained by the limited availability of such specialized facilities, whereas the camera-based approach can be implemented virtually anywhere yet lacks comparable realism in key procedural aspects. The objective of this work is to develop and evaluate a novel camera-based angiography training system (CBATS) that generates artificial angiograms and roadmaps, thereby combining the advantages of both imaging techniques while eliminating radiation exposure.
